New hard lines don't seem to fit--why?

Interesting option. Do you know who custom makes them?

Fitting the connections while everything is loosely attached to the car is the way to go. I spent way too long fighting my lines when installing the carrera cooler with everything bolted down tight until I loosened all the attachment points and then it all went together easily.

I know using a sealant is controversial. I did not use Teflon plumbers tape, although it appears so. I used a oil pipe “dope” the guy who inspected my oil cooler recommended. In his many years of experience this material has worked well. We’ll see, fingers crossed.

This is what I used. So far so good. It’s been a couple of years.
